Hallo Mark,
you don't need a reference, just common sense is sufficient enough to
understand the problem.
Just remind your self that a problem on any device (disk, tape) can cause a bus
reset and that a tape drive will rewind the tape because of that.
Bye
Ernie

Subject: [Networker] Microsoft's support position for tape/disk traffic
on same fibre HBA
Folks,
Does anyone have a reference which details Microsoft's support position
with regards to mixing tape & disk traffic on the same HBA in a fibre
channel configuration?
I'm well aware that this is a bad idea and that there are rumours that
Microsoft won't support a configuration of this type but I've never seen
anything in black-and-white which backs this up. I've seen the equivalent
from IBM and HP but would like to see Microsoft's statement if anyone has
a reference to it!
Cheers
Mark
